You can remove the center brace and replace it with acrylic strips. My friend Canuckgod420 did it on a 40g breeder. Place clamps around your tank wher the brace is, than remove the brace, have your acrylic strips ready and the glue you intend on using, place the strips where needed for support, then glue them into place wait 24h or so, then (SLOWLY) remove the clamps making sure that the tank does not bow on you. After it's done it looks great and it adds a custom look to your tank. Since acrylic is clear, your light will pass right through them with minimal loss of spectrum+power
